MQ Houston office closing? I was thinking about applying but I just heard that they are closing
the Houston office soon. What's going on with them?
Losing account
Do you work for the company whose name starts with F? Have you received info on a new account yet?
I was very panicked last week when I got this news. I have settled down a little bit now, but also I have started looking.
Not the OP, but some of us are losing our ExText account and
s
Losing primary account.
What happens? I haven't been working for an MTSO long enough to know (worked in house for the last 5 years). Could someone please tell me their experiences? I work for a large MTSO, so I am hoping that I can get placed on another account, but really, I don't think there are enough slots to fill all our positions. Any thoughts? Please HELP.
To losing primary account
Can you tell us which company? The moderators say it is okay.
Transtech losing large account
Anyone know where it's going?
Transtech losing large account
I'm scared to say. But big.
Transtech losing large account
No, it's a chain of clinics.
Transtech losing large account
I think if you haven't been notified already, then it's not your account. You're safe.
Accounts going offshore or VR. They are losing large account SM
because the hospital(s) is going paperless.
I assume they want us all on VR, so they can pay us 2 cpl or whatever they are paying the offshore MTs.
You can ask to be put on a higher level account, however, there is no M-F on the higher level accounts. They want you to work evenings and one weekend day.
Actually they will all be closing,
Except the corporate office, of course.
QT closing
yeah, like they would be kind enough to give anyone advance warning of anything. They strung along all the MTs and office people with empty promises and lies while they chortle all the way to the bank. They are NOT nice people and I hope karma bites them in the butt for the way they treated their MTs and office staff. As for severance pay? Can ya hear me laughing? From what I hear there were only a handful of MTs left, but agree with other poster, what a horrible time of year to dump your employees, be it MTs or other. Very grinchy of them
ColumbusMQ Closing
Have you been told where you are being transferred??? I hope not to Amherst---your accts will be overstaffed and you will be out of work in no time. It seems like everyone who is tranferred there with their accts is out of work shortly there after. It happened with all our accts when were transferred to Foxboro and Amherst. Has anyone had any contact from the Foxboro office lately?? I wonder if that office will be closing soon if all their accts are going up on DQS all the MT's would be transferred to Amherst
Chicago MQ--closing
Do you know where you are going to be transferred to??? Please not to Amherst
Does anyone know how many MQ offices are actually left???
are you certain the office is closing?
You might want to call there and ask.
Closing in on 3 months at KS...
and I'm very happy. I did not have full time work right out the gate as expected, but in the second week I made noises about it and they did get me backup accounts. Now I have tons of work and a real sense of security about it. The support has been great. All the managers are accessible and responsive. I came in while they were putting together a whole new benefits package so the dust is still settling on that, but I can't complain compared to what I had at my last company. When I was company-shopping I felt discouraged about all the talk about different companies, but this looks to be a situation I could settle into for what's left of my work years (too many!!). 
I heard they were closing down
completely! Something about never making any money in the MT business.
Closing date is 08/31 but there's a 15-day

curios about MQ Ohio closing
where and when was that announced?
Ohio office closing
I remember something about MQ consolidating down to just four regional offices, but never heard of the Ohio office closing. Columbus is the only one in Ohio, but I am still curious as to where this info came from?
MQ Ohio office closing
This is to MQ'r--previously on the board there was a posting that the MQ Ohio office was going to be closed at the end of the year, if this is the only office left in Ohio, do you know where you would be transferred to. I thought you would be transferred to another office in Ohio but seeing that this is the only one that is not going to work. From what I have read on the board I would hope that it is not to the Amherst office.
And Chicago CSC is closing also as of end of October...nm

Warminster closing probably end of year.

Difference in selling and just closing down
I can understand if there were legal issues regarding the sale of a company, but rumor has it that QT is just calling it quits, I would not think there would be any legal reason not to tell anyone, maybe they are just trying to prevent the MTs from leaving before the account has terminated. Still from what I read, most of the MTs would not go until the account was gone and the doors were shut, so I think it would more professional if QT told their transcriptionists what was going on.
P.S....or if facility is closing and provided that
Which they almost certainly would in most cases. This law has NOT proven to provide the protection for laid off workers that you seem to imagine.
technically, after the closing, then employees not ICs
so might want to rethink
MQ Ohio office closing-why not Amherst
What I don't understand is why they are closing an office that is obviously run very well--I don't think I have every seen anything but good about this office and yet they are closing it and continuing to leave the Amherst office open. What is wrong with this picture!!!!
Something is not right here but yet nothing is being done
Dewey/MQ Columbus office closing
I know there have been post on this board about the Columbus/Ohio office closing BUT, these were "leaks from inhouse", speculation, etc....as is the norm with MQ.
So, I'm not sure if they do close where we would all go, get transferred to etc. I just pray they don't..why mess with a great thing ya know?
Irony - MQ is closing offices and Keystrokes just built a new one. sm
I was part time with MQ and full time with KS and now will be KS only. I am radiology, make great money and have a great lead. I would recommend them to all MQ MTs that are thinking of leaving.
The email is KeystrokesNow@aol.com. The fax is (630) 729-3177.
We do not have a referral bonus, I am just trying to help everyone that is feeling displaced.
I am not losing anything as those
do not apply to me.
So after losing all that, what did you do? nm

They are losing their credibility, though.
We started that new account just a month ago and already fighting for work. I cannot do this anymore. I cannot be tied to my computer all day long just to get my line counts in. Does anyone know a good place to start with companies?
they are probably losing accounts or going to VR..sm
Have the attitudes of people in the office changed for the better? I remember the nastiest dispositions I have ever encountered in this business.
Good luck in your job search.
You have posting so much you seem to be losing it now
You are saying with a trust fund you would be able to make money on VR. Have you taken your medication today? Run along and say nite-nite to the grownups.
It's a losing battle
Or, at least, it has been for me. I got off on the wrong foot with QA where I am now and it has been drudgery ever since. Yeah, I was right in what I said and they were wrong or at least were not 100% right (a judgment call type of thing) but since then I get the crappy work, I get nitpicked on everything, and I think I am tagged 'the troublemaker' in general. I dread working now. Unfortunately, in this situation, if you stand up for yourself with QA you end up losing either way. You lose for the points being marked off and you lose for getting that label right out of the gait.
I'm not losing out; I have had my own accounts for
they aren't going to get anything better than they had with MDI. Just not gonna happen. Not everyone has the ability (opportunity, connections, know how, experience) to get their own accounts. I feel fortunate that it has come easily to me. I loved MDI but left because I made more with my own accounts. If not for those accounts, though, I would have definitely stayed with MDI. If i were with MDI now, in the situation today, I don't know what I would do...
I'm sorry the Heartland MTs are losing their jobs, but
why the outrage over offshoring. They knew HL offshored work, yet they continued to work for the company. Is it just know that you are losing your jobs that all of a sudden it matters that they offshore?
Anybody else at Precyse losing $$ on taxes? Had
That's $281/mo loss of income last year due to both low work volumes and 50% line rate decrease with voice recognition. The wave of the future is not to increase our earnings but to decrease. They say the clients want ASR so they have to pay less which, of course, they take out of our pockets. When the CEO sends around his Precyse made wonderful profits crap, I wanna barf. Wonder how much of a pay cut he took to keep a client happy.
They are losing their biggest and one of few rad accounts. sm
My manager told me that it will be gone by the end of the month. It is in NH.
Spheris - Losing benefits???
Can anyone tell me if Spheris is taking away their benefits for employees? I see benefits listed on their website, but another company I used to work for says it is so.
This is a former company because that place took away all our benefits and paid 2 cents a line less. And we are suppose to be thankful to just have a job.
It gets to the point that you look for a place not that is good to work for but not as lousy as the one before. .
Losing good employees
They are about to lose another one...I'm a long time employee and just can't take it anymore. I work on multiple platforms and still have no work and the work I do have is 90% ESLs. I went from about 20% to 30% ESLs to suddenly 80% to 90% ESLs. You tell me these hospitals have no American doctors? It must all be going to India but you tell me why the Indians are not doing the Indian doctors? Wouldn't that be easier for them? I have had no raise ever since I've been here. Always told I'm at the top of the pay limit. I'm giving my notice right after Thanksgiving.
They weren't losing those accounts.
They weren't losing those wonderful accounts, they were being sent to the Philippines to their transcription center there.
We are also losing MS Word...don't know if we will need it for Triton or not?

Had heard they were picking up 2, not losing 2. Are you sure? (sm)
Since you also stated QA positions eliminated, I assume you have some inside information. Please share. I have all my eggs in this one basket. E-mail if you prefer.
Losing ANY job is no laughing matter
.
I wonder if they are losing a lot of accounts lately. I have heard other MTs saying the same thing
from different offices.
You know, improper billing etc and now losing accounts.
New Rewards Plan - Losing old benefits (sm)
I have been very happy with MQ for years now, but all of a sudden things are changing. After losing yet another Transcription Coordinator, the new one informed me the other day that SEs have a 20 hour per week requirement not just the original 4,000 lines per payperiod. I don't know when they changed this little rule (certainly not on any contract that has been signed previously), but I thought, oh well, I need to work more hours anyway. Christmas is coming you know. Bad side is that I had to submit a schedule for those hours and then received a memo stating we had to stay within a one hour time frame of these hours or notify (forgot her name). So much for flexibility of a SE.
Then, I was thinking my check was smaller than expected and finally called payroll and guess what.... They no longer pay weekend shift differentials for my accounts. I was "supposed to have been told this before going to DQS". Well, guess what again?...
Getting used to working on DQS has cost me enough in the way of earnings. I make about 5-10 dollars less per hour now, on the same account I have done since 1998.
Now I am just waiting to see what other little surprises are in for me with the new rewards plan.
I certainly hope there will be some good news. I have been pretty optimistic and happy with MQ for a lot of years, but this is beginning to wear on my nerves. My husband asked how much more I planned on putting up with. I think I would be best served to see what is in store for us, it might be a big improvement, and then make my decision. I suspect MQ has been overhiring in anticipation of some of us walking anyway.
Hope I am just PMSing and things will look brighter tomorrow.
If HL people know they are going to be losing their jobs, why are they still doing work for them?

It was happiest note in losing Dolphin

Cut in pay/bounced checks/losing money
I have worked for this company for quite a while now. I have been very happy with them, until recently when they decided that they were going to cut my pay and other hardworking people's pay by 10% because they are losing money. They have had these accounts that they are losing money on for 3+ years and are just now realizing they are losing money. I have also had more than 1 of my paychecks to bounce. Beware!
